I would stay far away from that contract

It'll probably be Keefe but I wouldn't mind seeing BBQ Bruce in Toronto in some capacity.</div></div>

I doubt it. He has little success in the playoffs

Thread: Send Marincin down

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jack_</b></div><div>It's better for his development to play in the ahl until the trade deadline when there is no cap anymore. Sandin will be better and hopefully they can trade ceci so the can run a defense of
Muzzin-barrie
Rielly-dermott
Sandin-liljegren</div></div>

From the looks of it they're keeping him down for the season. They probably want the ELC slide

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jack_</b></div><div>Hes been decent but hes way better then harpur</div></div>

Harpur is just a body, he wouldn't play unless an injury. I'd much rather have Sandin but the Leafs don't want him in the NHL

TVR is a bottom paring guy, you're giving way too much

They gave up 3 goals in a minute, what do you want me to do? Say everything is fine?

Thread: Demelo

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>You’re also missing the point that if they kept Sandin in the NHL this year they would have had to protect him for the expansion draft with Seattle. Now that he has a year less of NHL games he may not meet the minimum requirements to be protected. Now you would be able to protect Reilly, Dermott and one of Barrie or Muzzin (if they stay of course) and 7 forwards. Over protecting 8 players.

Yes winning now is important but this move sets them up for more long term success.</div></div>

But they still need an NHL defenseman to fill in the spot Sandin occupied. Marincin just isn't that, Demelo would be a decent fit, cheap and he's not too bad of a player

Funny enough how the bad picks start at the Brian Burke era

Thread: Demelo

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>That is an overpay for a 3rd pairing Dman.</div></div>

Considering how much the Leafs gave up for 4th line centres a few years ago I could see it happening. Only if they keep Sandin in the AHL for the remainder of the season

Thread: Sandin sent down

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>He won't be though. Holl has taken his spot and once Dermott comes back Marincin is out of the lineup.</div></div>

What about that #6 spot? It looked like that wan Sandin's spot but now he's in the minors

Thread: Sandin sent down

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SammyT_51</b></div><div>Leafs are not contenders first and foremost. They are close but not there yet. TBH they are likely on cusp. Marincin is not gonna be a regular, Gravel is and he was good in preseason. Leafs are thinking about both current status and future which is refreshing to see in the league where you either tank or throw everything at winning the thing.</div></div>

If they're not contenders why haven't Jake Muzzin and Tyson Barrie been extended or traded yet? It seems pointless to lose these guys for nothing if the team isn't a contender yet?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>EthanK24</b></div><div>If you think of it that way, they can just call him up just before the playoffs, not burning a year of his ELC.</div></div>

You gotta make it first

Thread: Sandin sent down

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SammyT_51</b></div><div>Actually with Leafs being team that would be cap team for next 5-6 years at minimum, it makes sense to prolong your young guys' ELC as much as you can and this is doing this.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyFan989</b></div><div>they'r saving a year on his elc which they need with all the cap issuses... playing more minutes, 3rd line with the leafs or top line with marlies.... as well as he gets to develop more, getting more out of him throughout his career.... yep leafs made the right call</div></div>

When you're trying to win a cup you don't take that into account. The leafs have Muzzin and Barrie expiring after this year and they're going to lose at least 1 of them, they need to have their best players playing. Why worsen your chance at a cup over 30k in cap space? Unless there is a trade in the works than there will be no winning. No team is winning anything with Marincin as a regular

Thread: Give Liljegren a shot

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>Why? In place of who? Holl has looked pretty good with more of an opportunity.</div></div>

Because next year he's going to need to be on the NHL roster due to the cap crunch, giving him a couple games for some experience would help
